kprobes: Fix error check when reusing optimized probes

The following commit introduced a bug in one of our error paths:

  819319fc ("kprobes: Return error if we fail to reuse kprobe instead of BUG_ON()")

it missed to handle the return value of kprobe_optready() as
error-value. In reality, the kprobe_optready() returns a bool
result, so "true" case must be passed instead of 0.

This causes some errors on kprobe boot-time selftests on ARM:

 [   ] Beginning kprobe tests...
 [   ] Probe ARM code
 [   ]     kprobe
 [   ]     kretprobe
 [   ] ARM instruction simulation
 [   ]     Check decoding tables
 [   ]     Run test cases
 [   ] FAIL: test_case_handler not run
 [   ] FAIL: Test andge	r10, r11, r14, asr r7
 [   ] FAIL: Scenario 11
 ...
 [   ] FAIL: Scenario 7
 [   ] Total instruction simulation tests=1631, pass=1433 fail=198
 [   ] kprobe tests failed

This can happen if an optimized probe is unregistered and next
kprobe is registered on same address until the previous probe
is not reclaimed.

If this happens, a hidden aggregated probe may be kept in memory,
and no new kprobe can probe same address. Also, in that case
register_kprobe() will return "1" instead of minus error value,
which can mislead caller logic.
